Rehearsal

Rehearsal Rooms in York…

Melrose Yard Studios has three spacious, acoustically treated rehearsal rooms which all include a powerful PA system, microphones & stands. A drum kit, 2 guitar amps and a bass amp are also provided and cymbals can be hired if required. Practice sessions are available 7 days a week from 10am – 10pm (10am – 6pm on Saturdays).

Live Rehearsal Recording

Live rehearsal recordings are a great way to get your ideas down, track your progress or to use as rough demos. Each instrument is mic’d up and you get 30 minutes recording time. We then do a quick mix and each band member gets a CD to take away. Alternatively, we can provide the audio files for you to take away and mix yourselves.
